Why can't "God" have more than one name as well? This is in response to that hateful guy who just said that Allah does not exist. . . Not that I BELIEVE in this stuff, but just a thought. . . What are yours?

BrianK: This question is dedicated to you. . .
Why is "Allah" a bad thing? Shouldn't God be God, no matter what "his" name is? God isn't actually the real name anyway is it? Isn't the English name God translated from the Bible that was written so long ago? I'm pretty certain the makers of the Bible did not speak English.

Muslims believe in a man named Jesus. they think he promotes Islam tho and comes when the end of the world is near.
"Allah" just means god, and all relegions have a god. However whn Allah is used, its referring to the Muslim god. And a who list of things line up with that including muslim domination of the planet.

since we all speak different languages .. it isnt hard to believe that whatever your name for God is .... it is the same God
infact God is a general term ... that is not the biblical name for God anyway ... his name is jehovah isnt it ? ... there are a few other ways to say or spell it , but im not sure what they are

God and Allah are two different entities. One is a kind loving Father and Savior. The other is a terrorist. Can you guess who is who?

He has told Abraham what his name is. Suppose you told someone your name was Janice and they did not listen but, started calling you Sally or Gertrude? Would you appreciate that?
